My torts look pretty happy with it.

Very nice. You might want to change that water dish and use a plant saucer instead. Safer & less of a flip hazard.

I used to have the saucer and have recently replaced it with the water dish and I've been watching them and putting it in the ground in a way it's pretty near impossible to flip, but will be keeping an eye on it.

Great job how many torts are in their and what are their sizes
I have 2, one is 9 cm and the other one is 8,3 cm.

I think when people talk about the flip hazard of those water dishes, they're not saying the dishes are easy to flip, but that it is easy for tortoises to flip themselves climbing in and out of the steep sides. Water dishes - like terracotta saucers - that have their tops level with the ground are considered to be the safest.
